To prevent mortals from becoming to complacent with their existence and
from understanding too well the ways of the immortals, the gods altered
the world. Magical energies have torn through the Nexus, altering
the landscape, the creatures, and many once well understood
secrets. It is only through great care that the gods were able to
spare the mortals from the wrath that altered all else in the Nexus.
It is said that the Kingdoms of Buya and Koguryo were surrounded with
positive energies to prevent the corruption or destruction of the
mortals. As a result, much of the great forces of evil within the
Kingdoms have been driven off, leaving only lesser threats within city
walls.
From the Great Shift, new threats to the people of the Nexus have
risen. Foul ogres have bred at phenomenal rates and now controll
nearby lands. Much more powerful enitities of evil thrive where
once all was peaceful and calm. Mythic Nexus has become far more
dangerous and the passages to the majestic Vale can no longer be
found. It is rumored that beings of great power now dwell among
the mythic animals, attempting to coerce them into action to further
unknown objectives.
The Sonhi tribesmen and Ilbon pirates are nowhere to be seen. It
is unknown whether the gods shielded them from the great shift as well
and, if not, what may have become of them.
Perhaps the greatest loss to the Nexus has been the disappearance of
the four totem animal shrines. None are certain if these sacred
altars are still intact somewhere within the Nexus or if they have been
lost forever.
The Nexus is currently in a state of flux. The strain of the
Great Shift was great and still the land recovers from it. But in
time the chaos will subside, leaving open opportunites for discovery
and wealth, wisdom and death.
